Armor-Dilloz online

Armor-Dilloz armadillo logo and original brand slogan.

I work on the Armor-Dilloz store, and I also formulate the products, use them and answer questions about them. That leaves very little distance between the design and the customer: the questions people bring to the page are the ones I hear everywhere else.

The question behind every bottle

The Red, Blue and Green sealants sit side by side. The colors make them easy to tell apart, but what people actually need to know is which one fits their tire, so the instructions and dosing information are linked right next to the products.

Some of the most useful pages have plain names: sealant instructions, tube-tire troubleshooting, Bead Buddy instructions. People come back to those with a tire in front of them, so I treat them as part of the store.

Pumps, shirts and everything else

The range also covers tire-mounting products, a small pump, Onewheel accessories and clothing. Someone looking up application steps and someone browsing shirts are on different errands, so the menus and product groups keep them apart. The story, riding photographs and videos sit alongside the catalog, because the products came out of riding and working through tire problems.

The store and its next design

I work on the Shopify theme, the product information and how the brand is presented, and the public store and the newer design work are at different stages. Being this close to the products helps. A label has to be readable in a small photograph, and a question customers keep asking is usually a sign that an instruction page needs work.

04WEBSITES, DESIGNED AND BUILT

I design the site.
Then I build it.

A cookie brand that opens with a little theater. A board shop in Miami sunset colors. A cabinetmaker’s work filling the screen. I design how each site looks and moves, then build the pages, forms and tools that make it work.

Design, graphics and code since around 1999.

A different business.
A different approach.

The first few seconds matter. Here are three very different ways into a site, and the decisions behind each.

Sunset color, a custom board that turns as you scroll, and direct routes to service, builds, parts and ship-in repairs.

Ashley's cookie footage opens the page, a short signup gathers interest in drops and tastings, and a private workspace keeps track of everyone who joins.

Close enough to see the grain.

I let the reeded oak, grain and brass carry the opening, then built the gallery around projects with names and places.

The portraits on this site

Real photographs,
AI-generated portraits.

I made these portraits in Image Studio from several reference photographs of myself, including full-body shots. Each portrait and its surrounding objects are separate transparent images, so I can arrange them differently on each page.

Where the web work began

It started with the school computers in Farmington.

At Farmington High, my friend Jacob and I looked after the school's computers and network for credit instead of taking a regular class. By seventeen I was working with him at Cyber Port Station, an internet service provider in Farmington, and around 1999 we started a web design firm together. I remember the name as Matrix X Solutions, which tells you roughly what year it was.

Most of our clients were local restaurants and travel and hospitality businesses. I mostly did the HTML, graphics and animation while Jacob leaned toward the backend, though we traded jobs when it made sense. There weren't many layers between an idea and the page. You made the image, wrote the markup, worked out the interaction and put it online.

I still like working that way. When I make the graphics and write the code, a visual decision and the way the page actually behaves get settled at the same time.

Behind the design

Where some of this comes from.

The software under several of these sites, the companies behind a few of them, and the photography that trained my eye.
